Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go*†7, 2 0
The Smart Cruise Control (SCC) system allows you to set the vehicle to maintain a speed
and predetermined distance from vehicles detected ahead by automatically adjusting the
driving speed as needed . When traffic is encountered, the vehicle may be slowed to help
maintain the set distance from vehicles detected ahead without the driver depressing
the brake pedal .
With the SCC on and activated, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set, and the system
detects a vehicle slowing or stopping, the system can bring the vehicle to a complete
stop . When the vehicle ahead starts to move forward, the SCC system re-engages . If the
vehicle ahead stops for more than 3 seconds, the accelerator pedal or the RES+ button
must be pressed to start moving the vehicle .
To set/adjust SCC speed:
•Push the CRUISE button A to turn system ON . The CRUISE indicator will illuminate on
the instrument cluster
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed
•Press button B down to set the speed . The SET indicator light will illuminate . The set
speed and vehicle-to-vehicle distance will illuminate on the LCD screen
•Press the RES+/SET- button B up/down to increase/decrease the set speed
To adjust the vehicle-to-vehicle distance setting C: Press the SCC button D on
the steering wheel . The images on the LCD screen E and the Instrument Cluster F
will change when scrolling through the settings . Each time the button is pressed, the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance changes .
To cancel SCC operation: Press the CANCEL button G or press the brake pedal .
The LCD screen will display a message that the SCC operation is canceled H .
To turn SCC system OFF: Press the CRUISE button A . The CRUISE indicator on the
instrument cluster will turn OFF .
